Music Lessons in Fayette, KY

Instruments: Voice

My teaching style is completely student oriented. Every student will be taught differently because they all have different needs. I make sure that each student has at least one goal for each lesson and I make sure to acknowledge their accomplishments. Nothing is more rewarding than seeing my students accomplish their singing goals! Read More

My approach to teaching is to make sure my students have fun while they're learning and growing. It's important for students to learn to have fun while playing the same scale or rudiment over and over, and I think this is entirely possible! I also think it's important for students to see just exactly what their hard work is striving them toward. Setting up realistic goals for them and then helping them achieve them is pertinent to the process. Read More

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with breathing and vocal exercise. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals and are introduced to the Belcanto technique, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate, for their first recital performance or audition. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guild my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging, fun, productive and fruitful, no matter their ability level.

My approach is twofold: addressing the mind and addressing the body. I always have beginners learn how to stretch and release tension before they even sing, just like any athlete would. I have them develop a pre-singing routine including these stretches so they can both prepare themselves physically and mentally for every lesson and practice session. Then, I teach them basic warmups which help them build an awareness of their breath and where their body is in space. Read More

I have been teaching students for many years and love the challenge of developing new students into musicians that can be proud of their art.

I am about as laid back as you can be. Learning this instrument should be fun, since that is the level of commitment that most of us have. We lead busy lives as students, moms, dads, and caregivers. There is always something on the plate. I will make this fun, keep you interested, and make progress all at the same time. I will be teaching my student the components of the bass guitar, the components of songs, how they are written, how each instrument plays it's part in the construction of the song. Read More

My passion is to teach young and old of any experience level to overcome stage fright, to improve their voices, to practice, to give advice, and above all educate them in music theory, sight reading, and music history. I am adaptable to different learning types whether you are a kenestetic, an auditory, or a visual learner. Read More
